"The SIUE Anthropology Department will host an archaeology open house and mock excavation in celebration of Illinois Archaeology Awareness Month.  Kids of all ages are invited to exavate in our sand box.  Artifacts collected on campus this summer by the archaeology field school will also be on display.  Most date to the Middle Woodland period (ca. 2000 years old).  Please join us at SIUE's Anthropology Lab in Peck 0403 on Saturday, Sept. 19, 10 am to 4 pm!

 Contact Julie Holt (juholt@siue.edu or 650-2157) if you have any questions."
